No more “personal, sensitive” questions! An inside joke, you’ll have to ask Willy! :)
What a pro. When I think about all the years Willy has been a guide and all the same, basic questions he’s had to answer, his sincere engagement with us was just remarkable. It’s not like he hasn’t seen zebra and elephants a hundred times–but you would have never known, as he enthusiastically observed and described what we’re seeing. We also had several very interesting in-depth conversations about the Masaai, about conservation and about gender in Tanzania. I really appreciated his willingness to talk candidly and passionately about his view of things. His concern and care for fellow guides and fellow citizens was inspiring to watch.
“You did a great job making sure you understood what kind of trip we wanted while planning our itinerary, and I was just as impressed when we got to Tanzania. I feel that the guide can often “make or break” a safari– and I felt Said did a great job. He spotted many animals and did not rely on radio contacts with other guides.”
